Baseball In Crisis: Spiraling Costs, Bad Behavior, Uncertain Future

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Recent polls have placed football ahead of baseball1in popularity. Does this reflect football`s rise or baseball`s decline? Why has the national pastime--a title perhaps becoming inaccurate--fallen behind other major sports? Is the trend reversible? This book identifies the most substantial and persistent issues that have impaired Major League Baseball`s development. Chapters cover inflationary player, team and game costs, changes in baseball`s fan base, congestion in urban areas that host big league ballclubs, the negligent and irrational actions (some of it criminal) of players, owners, league officials, and the players` union, and the maldistribution of power among the major league franchises. Six major reforms needed to boost the popularity of baseball are identified. [detailed...]

Baseball Strategies: American Baseball Coaches Association

Publisher: —
Description: One of baseball?s most appealing features is that it is a thinking game. Athletes of all sizes can excel with sufficient smarts and skills. And managers from Little League to the major leagues can lead teams to titles with proper preparation and effective decision making. Now students of the game who are looking for a mental edge need only turn to one complete tactical resource. Baseball Strategies explains what to do, when to do it, and why in all facets of the game. Part I focuses on the offensive attack, from determining the batting order to sending runners on certain pitches in key situations. Part II gets inside a pitcher?s head with insights on selecting and locating pitches, holding base runners in check, and fielding the position. Part III presents a wealth of defensive tactics, from position-specific responsibilities to situation-specific alignments and plays. Part IV explains how to fine-tune your strategic approach, whether it be adjusting to the level… [detailed...]

Dennis Purdy
Baseball on the Brain

2007 y.
Publisher: Workman Publishing Company
Description: There`s trivia, and then there`s knowledge - deep, extensive, obsessive knowledge - masquerading as trivia. It`s the kind of trivia that, if you know the answer, makes you feel triumphant, and if you don`t, gives you an education. The kind of trivia based not on what we shouldn`t be expected to know, but on what we should - if we`re to consider ourselves true fans. Dennis Purdy, author of the just-published Team-by-Team Encyclopedia of Major League Baseball, has been collecting baseball trivia since before he could shave, and now presents the best of the best: a massive collection of over 1,000 trivia games. Not solo questions, but half-page games, every one involving matching multiple players to their accomplishments, or evaluating multiple clues to discover a mystery subject`s identity, or digging deep into a round-up of terms, nicknames, phrases, awards, events, individual teams, locations, and more. The games cover three centuries of baseball history. Home run calls and the… [detailed...]

Baseball over the Air: The National Pastime on the Radio and in the Imagination

2007 y.
Publisher: McFarland &, Company
Description: This narrative contains the documentation and interpretation of two imaginative pastimes (radio and baseball) and illuminates each in a unique manner. It integrates radio and baseball historically, sociologically, and culturally using the common themes of imaginative expression. This book is a unique approach into the magic of radio`s imaginative power. Broadcasting baseball on the radio has brought many millions of Americans an imaginative link to a game that is built upon recollections of athletic achievement that ring far truer in our `sweet imaginations`. Through the use of our imaginations, we can see the game itself as more than just a game, but a gateway to an imaginative realm beyond the reality of everyday life. [detailed...]

Brent P. Kelley, Brent Kelley
Baseball`s Biggest Blunder

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: The `bonus rule` of 1953-1957 required players who signed a baseball contract for more than $4,000 to remain on the major league roster for two full seasons. These were the bonus babies--young men of about 18 or 19 years old, so full of promise and talent that they overshadowed their high school or collegiate teammates and had professional teams scrambling to sign them. This system produced three members of the Baseball Hall of Fame (Al Kaline, Harmon Killebrew, and Sandy Koufax) and several other long-time performers, but the `bonus rule` was also responsible for the destruction of many potential careers. In two years or less, professional baseball lost the likes of John Edelman, Bruce Swango, and Paul Martin. Kelley tells the story of the rule and the players involved, using the files of the National Baseball Library as well as interviews with many of the bonus babies themselves and other players, managers, and baseball executives of the day. He also provides a brief history of… [detailed...]

Baseball`s Greatest Quotations Rev. Ed.: An Illustrated Treasury of Baseball Quotations and Historical Lore

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Baseball has always had its share of colorful characters, and over the years they have expressed themselves in eminently quotable ways. In this treasury of more than 5,000 quotations, noted baseball writer and observer Paul Dickson has captured the flavo of the game, in the words of its most important participants and onlookers. They are all here—from Aaron (Estella, Hank`s mother) to Zoldack (`Sad Sack` Sam), and everyone in between. From the players, sportswriters, and politicians to noted personalites in other fields (a very diverse group, including, for instance, Tiger Woods, Virginia Woolf, and Bob Dylan), everyone has his or her say on our nation`s pastime. Dickson skillfully selects and annotates each remark, presenting the good, the bad, and th ugly of baseball lore. One unique feature of this revised edition is the inclusion of pull-out sections featuring quotations by and about many of the game`s most quotable characters. Included are extended lessons in Stengelese,… [detailed...]
